By reading this strategic and analytical report you will discover Silverlight
addresses two areas of Microsoft’s key strategic aims. Firstly it addresses
Microsoft's goal of improving the "user experience capabilities".
Secondly, the company is seeking to provide an end-to end development environment
that encourages the use of Microsoft technologies and services. Microsoft's
vision for Silverlight is to provide 'the' ubiquitous programming model.
With such a wide pool of developers able to provide content for Silverlight
there is an existing base of content, and with Microsoft’s backing, can
this product really fail? What impact will it have on the market?

Broadband
Wireless Access Operators: A Global Survey and Analysis
Broadband wireless access
(BWA) operators have proliferated in recent years. Yet, to date, few have
reached the kind of scale that would make them a serious threat to their
wire-line competitors. Rather, they are seen by many as niche players, who are
willing to work the stony soil of the marginal areas, where others are unwilling
to venture. This study provides a detailed analysis of this quantitative and
qualitative research, comprising 60 pages of data analysis along with in-depth
profiles for 50 selected BWA operators from around the world.

GPS Mobile
Phones: Privacy and Regulatory Issues
Annual shipments of GPS-enabled phones will grow rapidly over
the period 2008-2012. This report predicts that by 2012, GPS phones will account
for 37% of all shipments (535 million).The number of users of mobile location
services accessed via GPS phones is also expected to grow strongly. Furthermore,
this report predicts that by 2012 the worldwide user base of the most popular
location-enabled services, navigation and mobile social networking, will reach
150 and 127 million respectively. This growth in the availability of handset
location information (LI) raises many questions about the degree to which users
can be protected from potential abuses of their LI.

Software Defined Radio in
Mobile Phones
Integrating
additional radio hardware is impractical beyond a point because it increases the
handset size, complexity and price. The attraction of Software Defined Radio
(SDR) is its ability to support multiple waveforms by re-using the same hardware
while changing its parameters in software. This has enormous benefits for
handset size, cost, development cycle, upgrade and interoperability. SDR-enabled
phones will also ease the challenges presented by limited spectrum availability
and act the prefect device compliment to the network-agnostic approach of
IMS.
